>>> It was great to read this morning's comments from the senior members of the Premium-Rx List, aka Mac, Wallace, Les, et.al. It is also hard to believe the Premium List continues to glow like a good old 5U4 after so many years of service. In fact, we are fast approaching the 20th anniversary of the first email exchange using the Premium-Rx site. It all started when I applied for some space on the university's server using the name of "Premium-Rx" and my request was rejected. It seems some IT geek thought "Premium-Rx" was a fashionable synonym for an illicit drug ring. Little did they know that playing with Premo Rx machines is more addictive than snorting the powder?
>>>
>>> Chuck Rippel and I were the instigators of the Premium-Rx list, in fact the name was Chuck's idea. The first receiver out of the block was the Rockwell Collins 2050, and from there on other receivers were proposed for 'membership' and were recognized. We specifically delineated the characteristics of the "Premium" so that the R-390 family, as well as other BA types that glow, would not qualify. Owner's came forward and our membership grew. The success of the "Premium-List" was established when Jan Skirrow ( VE7DJX Duncan, BC ) offered to oversee the management of our website. His work was supportive, professional, and endless. To my good friend- thank you Jan.
>>>
>>> It is interesting to note that some of the names of our original members were never announced or listed. These individuals were concerned about the security of their valued collection, Chinese citizens that had political issues, and even some French that evidently had a tax (probably not paid?) on some receivers. Lastly, we established a 'read-only' option or category for those who didn't have a receiver but simply wanted to read the daily posts.
>>>
>>> The workload associated with hosting the List finally motivated Jan and I to announce our desire to retire and let some new-blood take the leadership. This actually happened, however, the new administrative team stumbled and the List was soon dropped back in our laps. From here we were approached by Paul Kluwe, and as they say- the rest is history. However, in our case . . Jan and I say. . . Thank You Paul!
>>>
>>> In closing- Mac it is always good to read your posts as they reflect your respect for quality receivers. They also demonstrate that even old guys can maintain a sense of humor and yours IS EXCELLENT. Speaking of our elders- Benjamin Wallace, aka Mr. Qualcomm, will never stop buying hardware. Most of us have a hard time justifying to our spouses the purchase of yet another receiver or two, Ben's problem is buying bigger houses. . . for his ever growing collection. If California's tectonic plate ever breaks off and starts floating away we will all know the reason - the inordinate weight of Ben's RX collection.
